Nine years ago, Paul Eedle became obsessed with owning a historic wooden boat even though he could hardly sail. He found his 1907 Looe lugger Guiding Star so rewarding despite the challenges that he asked a shipwright friend in Cornwall to design and build him a new wooden boat. Hopeful, a 30’ gaff ketch, was launched this summer. Paul tells the story of two boats which transported him to a new world.
Please note: lectures can be watched live online but we do not generally make recordings available after the event, for a number of reasons relating to time and copyright issues.
